Self Condemnation: Every Christians Nightmare

I initially set out to talk about self-condemnation from the perspective of new-ish Believers, but realized when the recording was completed that this topic certainly applies to Believers of "ages." Hop aboard this podcast express and discover how the enemy of our souls and "accuser of the brethren" causes many sincere hearted and repentant Christians to wallow in self-condemnation for things that they've already confessed and forsaken and sometimes for behaviors and thoughts that aren't even sin. It's a wild-ride, so climb aboard the Without Spot or Blemish Ministry Podcast Express!

Live Stream Song Lyrics

1. Can't Deny

O Lord, how I love You
And You know I cannot hide it
You know I can't deny it
O Lord, how I need You
And I can't imagine my life
Without knowing You

There have been so many times
You've come through for me
And by the blood of Jesus Christ
You have set me free

O Lord, how I love You
And You know I cannot hide it
You know I can't deny it
O Lord, how I need You
And I can't imagine my life
Without knowing You

And by the blood of Jesus Christ
We've been set free from the second death
We inherit eternity and new life
With the new earth and new heaven

And I always will follow You, Lord
And I will go wherever You lead me
Yes, I'll always follow You, Lord
I'm gonna go
I'm gonna go

O Lord, now is the time
To show the world Your Face
Let 'em see how bright it shines!

2. Persecution Song

When my father and mother forsake me
The Lord shall raise me up
When in the synagogue they hate me
The Lord shall raise me up

And He'll lead me beside still waters
And He'll lead me in the power of His love
And I will find my way to Him
Oh I've found my way to Him
And He embraces like a friend
In the arms of His love
Oh His love
In the arms of His love
In the arms of His love

When my wife and brother they hate me
The Lord shall raise me up
When in Church they scourge and berate me
The Lord shall raise me up

And He'll lead me beside still waters
And He'll lead me in the power of His love
And I will find my way to Him
Oh I've found my way to Him
And He embraces like a friend
In the arms of His love
Oh His love
In the arms of His love
In the arms of His love

The servant is not above his Master
If they hated Him they'll hate you
It's good to be even as your Master
Speaking the words of Truth
A prophet is not without honor
Except in his own house and in his home town
It happened to Jesus, too
Jesus came not to bring peace but a sword
He's separating the sheep from the goats

Liars in the Church will only fail
The Lord shall raise us up
The gates of hell shall not prevail
The Lord shall raise us up

And He'll lead us beside still waters
And He'll lead us in the power of His love
And we will find our way to Him
Oh we've found my way to Him
And He embraces like a friend
In the arms of His love
Oh His love
In the arms of His love
In the arms of His love

3. Parables

A man once found a treasure in a field
Sold all he had, his love was real
He bought that field and he hid it there
He gained so much about the world he didn't care

Another guy was a merchant man
Seeking goodly pearls, that was his plan
And when he found the one of great price
He sold all he had, he bought it that same night

Jesus Christ, the Treasure, the Pearl
Embrace His Love and His Word
Buy the Truth, be born again
Out with the old, let Jesus in

There once was a rich man and a poor
Poor Lazarus waited at his door
The rich man found he couldn't care at all
The dogs licked his sores, Lazarus at the crumbs that fall

Then one day they both died
Lazarus in heaven at Abraham's side
The truth he found was more than the wealth
The rich man had cause now he was in hell

Jesus Christ, the Treasure, the Pearl
Embrace His Love and His Word
Buy the Truth, be born again
Out with the old, let Jesus in

There's only one side you can be on

It's either Jesus or Satan

There's no middle ground, no place to sit out

You only get this life to work it out

Jesus Christ, the Treasure, the Pearl
Embrace His Love and His Word
Buy the Truth, be born again
Out with the old, let Jesus in

4. The Time is Now

Whatcha doin' in your sittin' room?
You're talking to me, I'm talking to you
What's that happenin' all around?
Prices up, dollar down
So much to say, so much to see
Scrolls unroll, a prophecy
Seeks fulfillment as we speak
Do you think you're ready?
I say, do you think you're ready?
Is your faith strong and steady?

The time is now
No time for doubt
Reach for Him
He'll pull you in
Hide you in His feathers
All kinds of weather
You'll weather the storm
Protected from harm

They're trying to snatch up the whole world
Global government does unfurl
Ripped straight from the Bible
It's gonna start a revival
A mark, a man, and a beast
Controlling lives most and least
You better follow after the Lord
Away from the beast and the whore
I say, away from the beast and the whore
They'll steal your life and so much more

The time is now
No time for doubt
Reach for Him
He'll pull you in
Hide you in His feathers
All kinds of weather
You'll weather the storm
Protected from harm

They may hurt your body but they can't have your soul
He who overcomes inherits it all

A religion can't and won't save
Better know God personally
Of all the things we've been taught and told
So many lies still unfold
Find out the truth for yourself
Don't put your trust in anyone else
A script of lies must be burned
Every deception so unlearned
I say, every deception so unlearned
Preparing for our Lord's return

5. Empathy for the Lord

This time, Lord, let's not talk about me
Let's talk about You
It's time to have a little bit of empathy
Let's make it about You
It's easy to get self-centered
Let's talk about You
It's time to have a little bit of sympathy
Let's make it about You

I noticed we weren't doing our best today
I noticed we weren't giving our all today
Then I saw our sins piled up to the heavens
How each one hurt you
Then I saw our sins piled up to the heavens
All that untruth
It's get to you

How many of us consider
When we talk to You
All the hurt and pain that's been caused You?
We should grieve for You
But so many prayers requesting blessing
When we pray to You
Why can't we consider
That You've been hurt, too?

We're sorry for not doing our best today
We're sorry for not giving our all today
We're sorry for the sins piled up to the heavens
How each one hurt You
We're sorry for the sins piled up to the heavens
All that untruth
We're sorry for You

Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness
And all these things shall be added to you
To you

When I stopped trying to get what I wanted
And I talked to You
My mind cleared and all of a sudden
I was free for You
Then the things I wanted didn't much matter
I made it about You
So you gave them to me cause You're an Adder
When we make it about You
